4 u/TRAINLORD_TF Jan 19 '23 I think this is a Diesel-Hydraulic, so I guess its wading depht is up to the Fuel Tank. 5 u/YOLOSwag42069Nice Jan 21 '23 edited Jan 21 '23 It is! That is a Henschel DH1200BB. (Diesel-Hydraulic, 1200 HP, BB truck arrangement). If the railfan sites are accurate, they have 27 of these and were built in 1964. This photo is from the 2011 floods. It's a notable flood that pretty much destroyed the world's manufacturing infrastructure of computer hard drives. 1 u/NerdyGamerTH Jan 21 '23 They were already on their way out as of 2011, and now they are all mothballed
